I don't have a list of supported devices handy, but I see aha1542.c and aha1742.c in the 1.0 (not current) isa device directory. : If not, do you think it will be easy (ha!) to port the : Free source into Net? (by Dobbs, I'll not be going It shouldn't be too hard; I ported the FreeBSD Seagate ST01/02 SCSI driver source to NetBSD. And if anyone knows how to get more than 53 (fifty-three) KB/s out of that device, please contact me. The things which needed changing were some structs which linked in the driver to the kernel (struct cfdriver), some more structs which linked the driver to the SCSI system (struct scsi_adapter), and the device probe and attach functions. I just used the existing NetBSD SCSI device drivers as a model to be emulated.
